  • Patent number: 12258331
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a method of treating tumor using a novel pyrimidine derivative. It is demonstrated through the tests on anti-tumor activity at the cellular level (tumor cells expressed with c-Met) that, through the introduction of a chiral structure in the molecule, the introduction of an isotope of hydrogen (deuterium) at the sites that are prone to metabolism in the molecule, and the introduction of atoms or groups such as sulfur, selenium and sulfoxide in the molecule, the compounds of the invention have excellent anti-tumor activities, and the stabilities of the anti-tumor compounds are significantly improved.

  • Patent number: 12257232
    Abstract: FGFR3-related chondrodysplasias represent a group of rare diseases. Among them, achondroplasia, a nonlethal form of chondrodysplasia, is the most common type of dwarfism. The mutation, which produce an increase of FGFR3 function, affects many tissues, most strikingly the cartilaginous growth plate and bone in the growing skeleton, leading to a variety of manifestations and complications. In attempt to find a new therapeutic approach for FGFR3-related chondrodysplasia, the inventors purified (?)-epicatechin from T. cacao and showed that (?)-epicatechin treatment significantly increases the length of the Fgfr3Y367C/+ femurs comparing to Fgfr3+/+ femurs and improves the whole growth plate cartilage. The present invention thus relates to the use of (?)-epicatechin for the treatment of FGFR3-related chondrodysplasias.
